What else can I help you with?
Are there plants in the Abyssal Zone?
No, there are typically no plants in the Abyssal Zone due to the lack of sunlight for photosynthesis. Plants rely on sunlight to produce energy, so this extreme deep-sea environment does not support plant life.
What is the aphotic zone and what plants and animals live there?
Aphotic = no light so it is the zone below the depth of where light can penetrate. Depends on several things. The clarity of the water. less stuff in the water the farther light can go. There are no plants in the aphotic zone. Generally, there is less oxygen (and sometimes none) in the aphotic zone, but some animals can be found there. It depends on how deep this zone is and how well mixed the water column is.
What zone would it be more difficult for a plant to live in?
It would be more difficult for a plant to live in an arid desert zone due to the lack of water and extreme temperatures. Plants in these regions have to adapt to conserving water and surviving in harsh conditions with limited resources.
What are animals and plants of temperate zone?
Common animals in the temperate zone include deer, squirrels, rabbits, bears, and woodpeckers. Common plants in the temperate zone include oaks, maples, birches, and conifers like pines and firs.
Which zone is it most difficult for plants to live in?
Plants have the most difficulty surviving in the polar tundra biome, characterized by extreme cold temperatures, short growing seasons, and frozen soil. The harsh conditions make it challenging for plants to establish roots, grow, and reproduce.
Why are plants scarce in the bathyal zone?
Sunlight does not reach this zone, meaning there can be no primary production
Do orcas live in the bathyal zone?
No, honey, orcas don't live in the bathyal zone. They prefer to hang out in the epipelagic and mesopelagic zones where they can show off their killer instincts. The bathyal zone is a bit too deep and dark for these majestic creatures to strut their stuff.
Is the intertidal zone in the bathyal zone?
No, the intertidal zone is not in the bathyal zone. The intertidal zone is the area between high and low tides on the coast, while the bathyal zone is a deep-sea zone beginning at about 200 meters below the surface of the ocean.
Why do whales live in the midnight zone when they need sunlight and air to live?
No whale species live permanently in the bathyal zone, but sperm whales, with the large proportion of tissue in their heads protecting them from the immense pressures at depth, are capable of diving into the bathyal zone to hunt. They prey on squid, including the giant squid.
What ocean zone will you find a shark in?
I think it is the bathyal zone. :)
Bathyal zone animals?
The bathyal zone is a marine ecologic realm that is deep below sea level and is in permanent darkness. The animals that live there are carnivorous because there is no primary production of plants. Eels, squid, crustaceans, some fish, large whales, sponges, octopuses, and sea stars live in this deep sea area.
What are 5 Marine Ecosystems?
- the intertidal zone - the sublittoral zone - the bathyal zone - the abyssal zone and - the hadal zone
What zones is mainly decaying matter?
Bathyal zone
What animals live in the bathyal zone?
Angler fish, Gupler eel, Rat tail fish, crustaceans, Squid, Whales, and viperfish
Which benthic zone has a depth range between 200 m and 4000 m?
the bathyal zone
What is the name of the zone in the benthic environment with depth ranges from 200 to 4000 m below sea level?
The zone is the bathyal zone.
What are three characteristics of the bathyal zone?
The bathyal zone is a deep-sea region typically found at depths of 200 to 4,000 meters. It receives little to no sunlight, resulting in low light levels. Organisms in this zone are adapted to withstand high pressure and cold temperatures.
